I am not sure how and when to apply for the Green Open Access mode of publication. Is it after the journal accepts the manuscript for publication or otherwise? When I tried to opt for the same during the submission of my manuscript in a reputed open access journal, I did not find any option for the Green Open Access mode of publication. Kindly help.
The Green Open Access option may be available for authors to use after the manuscript has been accepted for publication by the journal . However, the availability of this option may differ between journals and publishers, and it may also depend on the funding source or the author's institution. It is recommended to check the journal's website or contact the editorial office to inquire about their Green Open Access policy or to seek guidance on how to apply for it. Additionally, some journals may have an embargo period before the published article can be made available through Green Open Access, so it is important to take this into consideration when planning to share or promote the article.
Hi Polash,
You can also check this website here [ https://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo ] to find publishers policies on Open Access. As suggested there is usually an embargo and restrictions around the form of the article you publish because of copyright issues. BW Matt
